Question from Family

Family asks:

Was there a reason Red Torpedo didn't speak in Humanity? You had Jeff Bennet in the cast, after all.

Greg responds:

Can't have more than three voices without activating an entire second payment for Jeff. Much as I would love to throw money at the amazing Mr. Bennett, we have a budget. And Jeff was already voicing T.O. Morrow, Red Tornado and Red Volcano.

After the granny goodness situation are the light still willing to accept certain members of darkseidâ€™s inner circle as potential light members if there is a vacant seat or are they all banned from joining the light now?

I don't think there are bylaws and official bans. But it seems highly unlikely.

Question from Yojimbo

Yojimbo asks:

In the past, you said at the end of Young Justice season 1, there were 179 name DC characters and at the end of Young Justice Invasion, the total increased to 241.

1. What was the total number of name DC characters at the end of Young Justice: Outsiders?

2. What is/was the total number of name DC characters at the end of Young Justice: Phantoms?

3. In December 2021, you said there were 759 name DC characters in an Ask Greg reply. That appears to factor in characters that were only mentioned. That seems like a very big jump from 241 at the end of Invasion to the end of Phantoms. Did the previous totals you cited for season 1 and season 2 ignore characters that were only mentioned?

4. Regarding your totals per season, I would like to ask for clarification on how you factor in the name DC characters that appear in the comic books and in the Legacy video game. Like for example, for Issue #0 to Issue #19 and the first Free Comic Day comic, were those added to the season 1 count of 179, were those in Issue #20 to #25 and from Legacy added to the Invasion count of 241, and the Torch Song digital comic included in the Outsiders count?

Greg responds:

I don't know that I tracked the stats the way you might have liked me to. Or preserved the various stopping points. I just kept adding to the total.

The total number of characters, revealed in the Young Justice Character Countback, is/was 782. That includes the television episodes, all the canon comics, the video game and the audio play. And it includes DC Characters, new characters (of which there weren't many, though there were a few), etc.

If these stats interest you, I suggest going through the Countback and compiling the info you need yourself. That way you can compile the exact stats you're looking for.

Question from Anonymous

Anonymous asks:

Since retiring from the Team where do Karen and Mal live? Do they live in Ivy Town or Happy Harbour? Also who are the godparents to their daughter?

Greg responds:

1. I'm thinking Ivy Town. But I honestly haven't locked that down.

2. I'm thinking Conner and Megan. But I suppose there's a shot that it's Wendy and Marvin.

Question from Anonymous

Anonymous asks:

I know they are young adults, but did Dick and Kaldur ever receive some kind of punishment for keeping everyone in the dark about the deep cover mission? They lied to everyone and did commit some serious acts like kidnapping members of the Team, putting others in danger and blew up Mount Justice?! Undercover mission or not I just don't understand how they could just get away free without so much as reprimanding?

Greg responds:

From whom?

Review the events. I'm not saying no one was pissed. Clearly, a TON of people were pissed, and as you saw, words were exchanged, and more words were most definitely exchanged off screen. But at the end of the day, they stood by their actions and the consequences of their actions, and whom exactly is in a position to punish them? And what punishment did you have in mind? "You're grounded!"? "You're suspended!"? "You're fired!"?

At the end of it all, who's gonna have the cajones to ask, "How dare you?!"

Question from Doesn't Matter

Doesn't Matter asks:

In regards to Eduardo, I just realized that in Episode 16 of Young Justice Outsiders, Virgil makes reference to himself as a 7th wheel... I don't want to say more, to avoid a very minor "spoiler?"

1) I'm curious as to how subtle that was meant to be?

2) Also, as implied, is he out to just the team? To the heroes? Or to the world in general? (Or is he not out to them at all, and Virgil is just guessing?)

Honestly. I'm kind of surprised no one's asked about this yet, though I guess I did just notice it today.

Greg responds:

1. Not particularly.

2. He's out. Fully.

I'm guessing few have asked because it's fairly obvious. Not as obvious as we wanted it to be. We wanted the relationship between Ed and Bart to be to be objective. But TPTB said no. Not because of Ed but because of Bart.

Question from Zman

Zman asks:

Thank you so much for an amazing S4. I'm really hoping we can keep the binge going to help get S5.
1. I'm wondering if you've given any thought to any of the souvenirs that Wally and by extension Garfield got during Team Year 1-5. Not asking for specifics, just if you and Brandon thought about it.
2-4. You mentioned that you're more willing to confirm defunct designations like Bart's original A Designation. You also confirmed Ed and Vic had temporary B designations before the D Designations came into play.
2. Was Vic's Outsider Designation D-08?
3. Was Vic's temporary B Designation B-35?
4. Was Ed's temporary D Designation B-34?
5. Was Brion retroactively given a D Designation that was never put into use in order for the members that followed him to maintain accuracy in the number scheme for the designations?

Greg responds:

1. For the most part, no. Because each souvenir was SO story specific. In the details. The souvenirs were pulled from the weeds of the story, so to speak, and though we have some specific story ideas in mind for those years and all the major events mapped out, we didn't have the details - the nitty-gritty - worked out for any of them.

2-4. I'm not in the mood to do all that research right now. Sorry.

5. The reason was HOPE.
